A baroque prince-archbishopric that still pays its bills on high culture: the Composer, Art Historian, Architect and Academic benches all come wrapped in Fischer von Erlach's churches and the Festspiele hive mind. The Skier line is the one honest concession to the twenty-first century, the mountains finally getting their due on a résumé the Residenz had been hogging for four hundred years.
One face per century — the most globally famous figure born in Salzburg during each.
